I was told by the septic company not to use these treatments, baker's yeast works best and cheaper

You should never need to use anything like this in your septic tank.

I've heard this both ways, the question boils down to are yeast based enzymes somehow superior to the industrially produced septic specific enzymes? One septic company told me to use the dry yeast products only- another told me the opposite and said he's fixed many of the others guys failed septic systems and that normal dry yeast was a wivestale/folklore/fuddlore. Idk, we've been using the enzymatic treatments for 20 years or so, knock on wood.

Never unless you are using an excessive amount of bleach or something that is killing off the bacteria down there. This is essentially snake oil.

Ok, septic guy here for over 30 years. Every other year at our re-certification study, this issue comes up. The scientists who analyze systems for a living and give these classes have always said. These enzyme products are pure snake oil, dont waste your money. And dont over think your septic system.

Every engineering study you'll ever read about septic systems says exactly the same thing. They won't do harm - except to your pocket. They basically don't change the chemistry of the tank at all, largely due to the volume of additive relative to the tank itself.

I was told the same by a buddy who is an engineer. He did, however, say that putting this in a day after pumping your tank may help jumpstart the bacteria. Other than that, he said to only feed the tank human waste, use only vinegar and baking soda to clear your house and use as little chemicals as possible.

Dish soap, rinsed food, hand soap, shampoo, conditioner, body wash, shaving cream, hair, laundry soap, bleach, vomit.

I'm not sure how bacteria live through all of that.

My experience with this sort of product is that you shouldn't really ever need this BUT there are occasions where it might help you out - maybe where if your tank is somehow going stagnant due to some event where you poured too much chemical down the drain, or you haven't used it in a while and it needs a good jump to get going again.

I bought a house where the tank wasn't getting used much and was getting "phantom flushes" from too much negative pressure, possibly from some sort of blocked vent somewhere - I tried it using a product like this and it cleared things up pretty quickly. Phantom flushes stopped and the odor in the basement went away. So I don't think there's things are entirely snake oil, but I do think they do prey on people's concern for their systems since it is very pricey to deal with problems.

What if you regularly have bleach going down the drain though? Not straight bleach but sometimes I'll pre soak whites in bleach or use bleach to get grease stains off of plastic kitchenware.

Nope - they do nothing. Look for some articles - they all reference the same thing that no peer reviewed study of any kind has ever found any of these additives effective.

Furthermore, there are products that have been found to contain products that actually do harm to the system, whether degrading plumbing components or the concrete tank.

At best, you're pouring money down the drain. At worst, you're actually hurting your system.
